The current ALIGN() macro is efficient as hell (generating just a

Thank you, but I've reorganized my system to pass platform resources to a
driver, which then registers simple gpio/pwm/quadencoder type devices as
standard classes declared in a subdirectory. Specific methods are then
simple exported

Peter & Andreas,
Thank you very much for your help.
